When applying corpus linguistic techniques to historical corpora, the corpus researcher should be cautious about the results obtained. Corpus annotation techniques such as part of speech tagging, trained for modern languages, are particularly vulnerable to inaccuracy due to vocabulary and grammatical shifts in language over time. Basic corpus retrieval techniques such as frequency profiling and...

Modern portfolio theory(MPT) addresses the problem of determining the optimum allocation of investment resources among a set of candidate assets. In the original mean-variance approach of Markowitz, volatility is taken as a proxy for risk, conflating uncertainty with risk. There have been many subsequent attempts to alleviate that weakness which, typically, combine utility and risk. We present ...

This paper proposes an emotion recognition system. Human emotion can be expressed through many kinds of medium such as speech, image, facial expression, and so forth. This paper focuses on the textual data of them. Proposed system is a hybrid system that uses alternatively two methods, keyword-based and machine learning method. Keyword-based methods are traditional approaches using emotional ke...

Selection statements – if-then-else, switch and try-catch – are commonly used in modern imperative programming languages. We propose another selection statement called a choice existentially quantified statement. This statement turns out to be quite useful for pattern matching among several merits. Examples will be provided for this statement. keywords: selection, pattern matching, choice quant...

Both CISC and RISC architectures continue to be widely used. RISC processors are present in most embedded devices, while x86 is the most popular architecture for desktops. Since modern processors have to address both power consumption and performance, it is important to compare these architectures to support future project decisions. Keywords—RISC; CISC; comparison

Infrared Functional Imaging was applied to the study of Raynaud’s Phenomenon obtaing a simultaneous assessment of the thermal properties of all five fingers of both hands of a group of patients with respect of a control group. The method is based on the use of high-resolution telethermography imaging and allows identification of objective parameters from the re-warming curves of finger immediat...

Option pricing is the the core content of modern finance. American option is widely accepted by investors for its flexibility of exercising time. In this paper, American option pricing formula is calculated for uncertain financial market and some mathematical properties of them are discussed. In addition, some examples are proposed. keywords: finance, uncertain process, option pricing

While event handling is a key element in modern interactive programming, it is unfortunate that its theoretical foundation is rather weak. To solve this problem, we propose to adopt a game-logical approach of computability logic [2] to event handling. keywords: event handling, game semantics, interaction, computability logic.

We are living in a modern and advanced era of computers where human effort is being minimized by the use of modern technologies. One of the aspects to achieve this is by bringing the daily household items or devices over the internet and let them communicate with each other autonomously. In this contribution we have used Raspberry Pi 3 and Arduino to analyze different parameters like RAM, Proce...

Modern building automation needs to deal with very different types of demands, depending on the use of a building and the persons acting in it. To meet the requirements of situation awareness in modern building automation, scenario recognition becomes more and more important in order to detect sequences of events and to react to them properly. We present two concepts of scenario recognition and...
